Description
The County Attorney of Sheridan County, purporting to act under the authority of ร§ 14-53 ff., W.S. 1957, filed a petition - Page 272 alleging that Dona Griffen (formerly Dona Shreve and at the time of the trial Dona Disselle) was the natural mother of five Shreve children: Mervin, age nine; Eugene, age seven; Leva, age six; Theresa, age four; Karen, age three; then living with Leva Anderson, their grandmother; that the mother was an unfit person to have the permanent care, custody, and control of the children by reason of her abuse and neglect of them; and that the best interests of the children required their being placed under the jurisdiction of the court and the custody and guardianship awarded to the father, Alvin Shreve, or another suitable person. Petitioner upon these allegations sought termination of the parental rights of the mother, the appointment by the court of a suitable guardian for the minor children, and the granting of temporary custody to a suitable person. Summons and citation was served upon Dona Griffen and also upon Alvin Shreve, who had been previously married to the childrens mother, divorced from her in 1956, remarried the same year, and again divorced in 1960 by a Montana court. He filed an answer, praying that the parental rights of the mother be terminated and that the children be placed in the care, custody and control of his sister and brother-in-law, Margaret and Vern Dillon of Odessa, Missouri. Mrs. Disselle filed an answer, denying generally all of the states allegations and asserting that she was capable of taking care of the children and requesting the dismissal of the petition. The Dillons filed a written offer to accept the custody of the minor children, and Leva Anderson, the maternal grandmother, filed a similar offer.
